Subject: [PATCH] kernel-install: prefix errors with "Error:", exit immediately
MIME-Version: 1.0
Content-Type: text/plain; charset=UTF-8
Content-Transfer-Encoding: 8bit

kernel-install would continue after errors… We don't want this, as it
makes the results totally unpredicatable. If we didn't install the kernel
or didn't do some important part of the setup, let's just return an error
and let the user deal with it.

When looking at output, the error was often hard to distinguish, esp.
with -v. Add "Error:" everywhere to make the output easier to parse.

(cherry picked from commit 680cec6b4ddb356d7dd087b197718712cb5c1662)
